In a scene out of a festive pantomime, artists and bohemians chased bailiffs out of an occupied London music venue yesterday as onlookers cheered them on.
Members of the Bohemians 4 Soho collective set up an eviction resistance party outside former 12 Bar Club on Denmark Street.
Around 30 men and women dressed in garish outfits played music and chanted: “Don’t let the music die” as bailiffs awaited to evict the group.
